No, you’re not too busy

You are never going to be the best version of you of you don’t look after yourself.

You are never going to be the best version yourself if you don’t look after your mental and physical health.

You can try and ignore the above statement.

Or you can try convince yourself that it’s not true.

Stop lying to yourself.

It’s not an opinion.

It’s a fact.

No, you’re not too busy.

Yes, you do have time.

Do you know how I know?

Because I have made the same excuses.

I have had the same conversations with myself.

I have ignored my mental and physical health.

I know what it’s like to uneasy in my own skin and disconnected from my body.

I know what it’s like to struggle from poor, dark mental health.

Every part of your life, bar none, will be better if you look after yourself.

Every single part of your life.

If you can’t even take care of yourself and your own body and mind, how can you expect to chase goals and add value and be a better person for the people around you?

If you want to be better at life.

Take better care of yourself.
